Picture of Njord

NJORD From the 'Gods of England' series by Thorskegga Thorn

Thorskegga has started a series of paintings depicting the gods worshipped by the Anglo-Saxon and Norse settlers in England.

Njord is the god of the seashore. He is the father of Frey and Freya the god and goddess of fertility.

He is shown here with herring, gulls and the herb samphire beneath the cliffs of Dover with the Roman lighthouse.
